The problem is that it's not simple to fix for us in a way that works for everyone and does not break your setup anyway. npub1959q8z8jp77sguavh993zc4tm8sxkj6jqe003vjd6zvenpwtz6cs742tmz Alpine Linux :alpine: Thanks to the heroic effort of omni and celeste, rust 1.76 landed today in #alpine after being stuck on 1.72 for quite some time. npub1959q8z8jp77sguavh993zc4tm8sxkj6jqe003vjd6zvenpwtz6cs742tmz Alpine Linux :alpine: Alpine 3.19.1 released. npub1959q8z8jp77sguavh993zc4tm8sxkj6jqe003vjd6zvenpwtz6cs742tmz Alpine Linux :alpine: @npub10gv…g2aw For now it will still require manual intervention.
